I Became A Thief Who Steals Overpowered Skills - Chapter 34:

Sephira was an organization dedicated to investigation into the erosion of the world. It was made up of talented people from all over the world.

This organization had the support of the four main kingdoms, each small country and even the empire.

‘That’s why Sephira is the highest authority when it comes to the investigation of the erosion of the world.’

Not even Valheim was opposed to Sephira’s investigations. Otherwise, they would turn all countries into enemies.

“Here I am.”

When Krasue entered the room, there stood a woman with a stern expression.

Her chest stood out with Sephira’s special uniform. She had one hand on her briefcase on the table.

‘Rank 4’ was inscribed on her chest.

The ranks in Sephira ranged from 9 to 1, so this was a person of considerably high rank.

Of course, there was no reason to be surprised since this was their duty.

“You must be Krasue Valheim.”

“Yes, it’s me.”

Since the other party spoke in a businesslike tone, Krasue also responded in a businesslike tone and sat across from her.

Sephira was a piece that would be needed in the future. Their knowledge related to the erosion of the world was unrivaled.

Therefore, his intention was not to oppose them. At least not until the person in Sephira who would ruin everything appeared.

‘For now there should be no problem.’

That person would come into action a little later. So Krasue decided to focus on the woman in front of him.

It was then that Krasue noticed through her hair some small black stars on her neck.

Krasue stared blankly at those black stars for a while.

“?”

When Krasue suddenly burst into laughter, the Sephira investigator tilted her head.

She looked curiously at Krasue, who leaned back relaxed in the armchair.

‘I had wondered where the immortal’s servant was who had caused the anomalies in that erosion of the world.I didn’t expect the servant to appear in front of me.’

“Immortal.”

The moment Krasue uttered that name, the woman’s body stiffened.

“I would like to make a deal with you.”

The small black stars on the woman’s neck were proof that she was none other than the immortal’s servant.

It shouldn’t be visible, but Krasue had absorbed the power of the erosion of the world. As a result, he could now see the immortal’s marks.

“How bold. I didn’t expect you to have planted a servant in Sephira.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

The investigator shot a death glare at Krasue. However, her fierce eyes didn’t scare Krasue at all.

“I am the only one who can erase your immortality, so it is in your best interest to listen to me.”

As soon as these words left his mouth, the investigator’s appearance began to change.

Her hair went from a deep black to a fiery red color. Her eyes also turned a fiery red.

Her pupils became like those of reptiles.

In the end, she let out a heavy breath as several more black stars appeared on her neck.

“Huff.”

Krasue then felt a pressure that ran through his entire body. He broke out in a cold sweat.

Even if Krasue didn’t feel overwhelmed by the pressure, his body reacted like this instinctively.

Although it was only the immortal’s mind that had temporarily taken over the investigator’s body, an aura now emanated from her that instilled terror.

“Child. Are you the regressor?”

At these words, Krasue, who had been relaxed, stiffened for a moment.

‘The regressor.’

His thoughts stopped.

Krasue had certainly returned to the past, but he was not the real regressor.

The real regressor was Arthur Gramalte.

‘Does the immortal know about Arthur’s existence? No, I don’t think so.’

If that were the case, she wouldn’t have asked if Krasue was the regressor.

Somehow the immortal knew about the regressor, but not who it could be. It was quite likely that the question was meant to probe him.

At the same time, Krasue understood why Arthur had tried to find and kill the immortal in his past life.

‘Arthur didn’t want his secret to be revealed.’

“I don’t know what the hell you mean by regressor, but if it were me, do you think I’d tell you?”

“For a human child to have the audacity to ask me for a deal, I can’t be other than the regressor.”

The immortal laughed as if he had seen through him.

“I came here to see who had managed to eliminate the erosion of the world that I boosted. I didn’t expect to find this surprise.”

The reason why the immortal committed such insane acts, like the sudden increase in level difficulty of an erosion of the world, seemed to have no relation to the regressor.

The immortal’s expression became very arrogant.

“It’s ridiculous that the regressor can erase my immortality. How dare you, who are trapped in the shackles of time, boast with me, a being who has transcended time?”

The immortal seemed convinced that he was the regressor.

‘I’m a half-regressor.’

The Arthur who died crushed by a meteorite no longer existed does not exist in this world. However, that didn’t mean there wasn’t another self of his.

‘The proof is that I don’t have the regression skill I stole.’

The regression that Krasue had obtained disappeared.

‘Skills are unique powers, so it is not possible for two people to have the same skill.’

‘Ignite’ was contained in Krasue’s black hood, but not ‘Regression’.

Since this Arthur had ‘Regression’, it was deleted for Krasue. Therefore, the real regressor was still Arthur.

‘This Arthur, who must have also used regression, how far has he gone in his attempt to prevent the destruction of the world?’

That wouldn’t be easy to know, what was clear was that he didn’t know that Krasue was back.

“Have you enjoyed the world you’ve seen? Do you feel like the whole world is yours just because you’ve experienced the regression? It’s funny. Eventually, all you will be left with is emptiness.”

As the immortal laughed and made sarcastic remarks, Krasue was silent for a moment.

Shortly after, Krasue raised his hand.

The pen that could be seen in the woman’s briefcase on the table appeared out of nowhere in Krasue’s hand.

As soon as the immortal saw this, she was taken aback.

She knew well that what Krasue had done now was not due to aura or magic.

“It’s a skill.”

Krasue openly revealed that it was a skill.

Krasue slowly spun the pen in his hand and looked at her transfixed.

“With this skill I can even steal your immortality.”

At these words, the immortal’s eyes shook anxiously for the first time.

“Now let’s have a conversation. Crimson Garden.”

She wanted to erase her immortality.

“I’m the only one who can help you.”

The name of the Erosionist in front of him was Crimson Garden Audra.
